[Vincent Van Goat]

Clippers need to get Wesley Matthews


Small ball lineup with

CP
Redick
Wes
Blake
DJ


You got defense on the perimeter and in the paint, all world shooting/P&R/post play.

That would be nice but how would that be possible 

 especially if they give DJ the max 

 

[shoeking2101]

That last move by CP

 

[awwsome]

That would be nice but how would that be possible   especially if they give DJ the max and not to mention Jamal Crawford is a free agent too

[h1]Excitement Grows as Oculus Rift Rumored to Show NBA and NHL Games in Virtual Reality[/h1]

Oculus Rift is Facebook’s virtual reality headset, and it could make them huge profits by changing the way we consume sports in the future. Much of the excitement about Oculus Rift, which Facebook acquired for $2 billion last March,  was about its role in the video gaming world. Many saw Oculus Rift revolutionizing gaming by creating far more immersive e-worlds than ever before. However, now, Oculus Rift and other virtual reality vendors are rumored to be looking to use this technology to produce an infinite amount of courtside seats that it could sell to sports fans.

This week Piper Jaffray, a research firm, wrote that Facebook’s Oculus division could enable fans to watch NBA and NHL games using their virtual reality technology.

Oculus could allow fans to watch NBA and NHL games from “virtual courtside and rinkside seats,” Piper Jaffray’s Analyst, Gene Munster, wrote  in a note to investors.

As we know, the NBA has already experimented with virtual reality during NBA All-Star weekend. And in the near future, the NBA is said to be running at least four events  on Samsung’s virtual reality streaming system, and the league’s Commissioner, Adam Silver, has already answered questions about virtual reality courtside seats. The NHL and NFL have already done live virtual reality streaming tests as well. Courtside tickets are expensive, but any sports fan would love the chance to see a bone crushing hit on the boards at a hockey game or see their favorite NBA player up close, as if they were courtside.

While analysts say that VR broadcasts for every game may not fully come to fruition for another eight to ten years, this could be a huge innovation for vendors and fans to continue to monitor.

For Oculus Rift, this a huge opportunity, because fans could experience something similar to a courtside experience for less than the actual tickets cost; and vendors could even possibly make more money, because while the courtside experience would sell for less, there is an unlimited amount to sell.

Lets hope I'm around in 10 years to witness this.

DJ may end up with 20 rebounds before the half is over. My god

 

[awwsome]

Pau getting manhandled by DJ.

 

[100027]

DJ is a beast, yeah. When crunch time rolls around though, his inability to make a free throw evens everything out.

But J Crawford's crunch time play negates DJ's FT crunch time issues.

I'd take that combo, all day

 

[nick.]

DJ took the leap this year

if only he could shoot 60% from the line

 

[lawdog1]

Anyone see that shot of Harden in street clothes. Looking like a rabbi.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

It's just insane on how fast the pendulum swings

Just a few months back I said DJ is a DPOY candidate and people stonefaced

I read through this thread and people were calling DJ an overrated defender and basically giving up on him saying "he is what he is"

Interesting

Maybe so, but that's only good for winning a series or two. Won't get it done.
